Pennant International ( (GB:PEN) ) has provided an update.
Pennant International said it expects its 2025 results to be in line with market expectations, reporting revenue of about £10m, a reduced statutory loss before tax of £2.6m and sharply lower net debt of £0.2m, supported by property disposals and fresh funding. Despite lower revenue year-on-year, the group maintained gross margins around 50%, expanded its three-year contracted order book to £23.3m, grew Auxilium software annual recurring revenue to a record £2.4m through new geographies and sectors, and secured up to £9.5m of training systems contracts, giving management confidence in a three-year strategy targeting higher software ARR, recovery in technical services and improved profitability by 2028. Entering 2026 with roughly three-quarters of forecast revenue already covered by contracted work and expecting ARR to exceed £3m by year-end, Pennant aims to reach break-even adjusted profit before tax and positive operating cash flow, funding continued Auxilium development internally as it capitalises on rising global defence demand for integrated product support and leverages new channel partnerships including a global OEM deal with Siemens.
The most recent analyst rating on (GB:PEN) stock is a Hold with a £22.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Pennant International stock, see the GB:PEN Stock Forecast page.
